About Alane
Alane Roath is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with 23 years of clinical work. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and trauma and abuse. She also supports those facing life changes, grief, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.
Alane centers her work on listening closely and responding to what each person brings into the room. She uses clear, practical methods so people can notice small changes that make daily life easier. Sessions emphasize understanding patterns, improving communication, and building coping skills that fit day-to-day routines.
Her practice includes attention to addiction, compassion fatigue, and mood disorders like bipolar. She also addresses attachment and abandonment issues, family of origin dynamics, and problems such as codependency and communication breakdowns. Alane has experience supporting people through cancer, caregiver stress, first responder concerns, and gender or sexuality questions.
Clinically, she draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Client-Centered Therapy, and Existential Therapy. These approaches guide practical exercises, values-based choices, and conversations about feelings and relationships. Clients work on strategies for obsessions, compulsions, and OCD-related patterns when those come up.
Sessions are conducted in English and follow Missouri LPC practice. International clients are not accepted. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session.
How her approaches adapt to online care
Alane uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in ways that fit remote sessions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors through short exercises and homework that can be discussed in sessions. ACT works on noticing values and taking small steps toward them, using mindfulness and values-based actions that translate well to conversation and at-home practice.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals, needs, and preferences. That process includes trying practical techniques and checking in about what helps or needs adjustment.
The practice currently follows Missouri LPC standards and conducts sessions in English. The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Many people find virtual sessions helpful because they can fit a meeting into a work break, reduce travel time, or choose a shorter check-in when life is busy. Therapists can also use video or phone work to focus on therapy tasks that do not require paper resources, letting clients keep progress moving even when schedules are tight.
